According to Qin Niu’s original plan, he had intended to wait until the Ant Queen advanced to Grade Five and had hatched and nurtured several batches of eggs.
Only then would he go for the Green Demon’s treasure.
After advancing to Grade Five, the Ant Queen gained several new talents, and the ant offspring she produced would be richer and stronger.
Especially the highly toxic Termite, which Qin Niu was particularly looking forward to.
Now he could no longer wait.
Facing two opponents on their own and faced with a strong alliance, the Black Tiger Gang was probably about to be on the verge of collapse.
“Xiao Qing, let’s push a bit harder in our training on the mountain today. If we still can’t break through today, I’m afraid we might have to wait for a while,” he said.
Qin Niu took her into the mountains.
Xiao Qing also knew that today’s training opportunity was extremely precious, so after entering the mountains she headed straight for the Ancient Banyan Tree. Qin Niu went to the Ant Nest to carefully nurture each Termite.
This time, heading to the Green Demon’s hometown, Black Stone Village in Hundred Leaf Town to seek treasure, it’s unknown when he would be able to return.
The journey was fraught with risks and uncertainties.
The Termites he nurtured today could only be left in the Ant Nest. Due to the urgency of time, he planned to set off early tomorrow morning.
After cultivating the Termites, he entered the maze within the Ancient Banyan Tree for training, and of course, taking blood was not mentioned.
During this period, he had been practicing diligently, consolidating his realm, and enhancing his cultivation.
The power of the Medicine King Sutra had reached the fifth layer of the Acquired Realm, and the furnace cauldron formed by the Medicine King Sutra’s power in his body had also become much more solid.
The Innate Realm of the Everlasting Spring Technique also became stable under his steady and solid approach.
After advancing to the Innate Realm, he discovered that, in addition to the body undergoing a complete transformation, his spirit had also become ten times what it was before. Additionally, the ability to project his power externally was a very important advancement.
When using the Ink Blade, transmitting his power into the blade could immediately cause the Blade Qi to surge.
If the Golden Toad was injured, he could also expend his power to heal it.
Why is it said that one step into the Innate Realm is a half-step into immortality?
That is because the operation of a magical instrument requires at least the cultivation of the Innate Realm. Otherwise, no matter how powerful the magical instrument is, if it falls into the hands of mortals, it would be like a piece of ordinary scrap metal, unable to exert even the slightest bit of its power.
Moreover, after advancing to the Innate Realm, he found his power to be condensed and pure, qualities that the Acquired Realm did not have.
At the stage of the Mortal Realm, there was almost no power.
The energy introduced into the body was all absorbed by the body, used for strengthening and tempering.
After advancing to the Acquired Realm, some power gradually remained within the body.
However, the power of the Acquired Realm was as loose as scattered sand and smoke, difficult and slow to mobilize, and its power was far inferior to that of the Innate Realm.
If Qin Niu’s cultivation was double Acquired Realm, he would rank among the higher-ups in Jade Stream Town. Now, he was already one of the top experts in Jade Stream Town.
In the whole town, there should be few who had reached this realm.
Estimates suggested that only a few large clans might have such level of experts.
Renting ducks to the Yan Family recently, he also had a noticeable change in mentality.
In the past, he was filled with awe towards the Yan Family, and even after reaching the cultivation of the Acquired Realm, that reverence still existed.
Now, with the cultivation of the Innate Realm, when facing the Yan Family, there was no longer that invisible pressure, only mutual respect and equal treatment. Even though his current strength was weaker than the Yan Family’s, he was already on the same level.
This fact showed that one’s own cultivation is fundamental.
No matter how strong a nurtured beast pet is, it could not give him this confidence and composure.
Early the next morning, Qin Niu set out wearing King Pig Leather Armor and carrying a basket on his back.
The Red-eyed Golden Toad was in his basket.
The Diamond Ink Turtle was also brought along.
Since the Green Demon used to live at the bottom of a cliff, there could be dark rivers or pools. Bringing the Diamond Ink Turtle might be useful at a critical moment.
It was now a Grade Five beast pet.
Its personality, however, remained the same as before, timid and staying motionless in the basket, not even daring to stick out its head.
It seemed to be very afraid of the Red-eyed Golden Toad.
In addition to these two beast pets, he carried nearly twenty thousand Termites on him, the lowest Grade Two and the highest Grade Four, all carefully nurtured.
Some were left in the Ant Nest to ensure its safety and normal operation.
The Ant Queen now laid a thousand eggs per day, consuming a huge amount of food.
Additionally, a large number of newly hatched larvae required nurturing and care, and their food consumption was also not small.
He also took some War Bees and Green Ring Worker Bees with him.
This trip was a big challenge for the War Bees and Green Ring Worker Bees.
Leaving the Queen Bee and the bee nest, it was unknown whether they would encounter problems?
Bringing them was also a necessity.
Because he didn’t have any other air forces available now, only bees were usable.
If this time he could successfully acquire Green Demon Bees, his air force would be quickly strengthened, and the battle prowess of his insects might increase tenfold or even a hundredfold.
Xiao Qing was left at home to watch the house, and he instructed her to learn the Seven-Star Sword Technique during this period.
Seeking the Green Demon’s treasure was fraught with great risks, and her presence would not only be of no help but could also become a burden. Leaving her at home was also an act of care for her.
Qin Niu kept his head low and hurried on his way.
He had already planned to first make a trip to Black Tiger City to purchase some necessary supplies.
And by the way, he would ask around for directions to Black Stone Village in Hundred Leaf Town.
Last time, he only bought one Advanced Contract Talisman, which he used when taming the Red-eyed Golden Toad.
This time, he was prepared to buy one or two more.
Otherwise, without an Advanced Contract Talisman, even if he encountered the Green Demon Bees left behind by the Green Demon, he would not be able to tame them, and that would really leave him at a loss.
Not long ago, after advancing into the Innate Realm, his spiritual power had increased by more than tenfold..
